to start to get used to healthier alternatives and make better choices. Let's take a look at some common lifestyle choices that could help you lose weight easily.
Got a soda habit?
Drink a lot of soda or fruit juices? Substitute water and tea instead. Studies show that just this one substitution can help you drop 20 pounds in a year.
Spending a lot of time buying fast food?
Avoid anything that you can get through a window. Bring your lunch instead. Home cooking almost automatically guarantees a meal that's lower in fat and calories than anything you could get through a window.
Never finish a meal without grease(油脂) on your hands?
Deep-fried foods are loaded with calories and fat. Fry in a little olive oil,instead.
Always having a lot of sauces?
If you're ordering sandwiches with special sauce or mayo,then you're eating a lot more calories and fat grams than you think you are. Some sauces can add more than 20 grams of fat,and hundreds of calories to your lunch. Mustard (芥末) is a good alternative. It's flavorful, and has virtually no calories or fat.
Take a look at what you're doing, and make changes you can live with.
